Number One Contender For Intercontinental Championship Determined On 12/24 WWE SmackDown


A new number one contender for the Intercontinental Championship has been determined.

After getting talked into cashing in his Universal Title opportunity by Brock Lesnar and then getting attacked by The Beast and immediately pinned by Roman Reigns, Sami Zayn complained to WWE Officials with the hopes of getting another chance at SmackDown’s top prize. Instead, Sonya Deville and Adam Pearce booked a 12 Days of Christmas 12-Man Gauntlet Match to decide Shinsuke Nakamura’s next challenger for the Intercontinental Title.

The match took place during the December 24 episode of SmackDown and saw Sami Zayn win after entering last and pinning Ricochet who had already eliminated a couple of opponents before Sami trotted to the ring.

No date has been set for Sami’s match with Shinsuke.
